Bottom of the eighth. Brand new ballgame, as they say. Cubs get a break when Espinosa boots a routine grounder. They need to take advantage of this break. Nothing doing. Ninth inning coming up.
Top of the ninth. Marmol in to pitch. He looks OK, more fastballs than I remember. Tracy hits a hard liner off the wall. Another misplay by the Cubs, though, DeJesus got all turned around. Should have caught it even though it was hit hard. Desmond beats Marmol with a single off the end of his bat. Looked like a pretty good pitch. Once again, you cannot give away outs like the Cubs do and win.
